Our good pal Jamesie joins us back once again on the DKP to deep dive into the work of two of the legends of British Wrestling from the golden era. In the fourth show of the series, the lads look at the great Johnny Saint and the hated Mick McManus. Two very diverse styles and two memorable performers.

Tune in and listen to a fun discussion about their matches with the likes of Chris Adams, “Ironfist” Clive Myers, Dave Finlay, Robbie Brookside, Sammy Lee, and many more! A really fun show, so you know what to do: CHECK IT!

The Mid-Summer Magic is about to begin! Yes, it’s time for the G1 Climax 2017 and it’s got as much excitement surrounding it as ever before. New Japan is in the midst of a historic in-ring year and the G1 could potentially take it to an even higher level (as ludicrous as that seems).

The lineup is great, there’s a ton of great matchups, sleeper matchups, and fresh matchups. Plus there are some really interesting stories from top guys to newcomers to veterans. This has the potential to be an unforgettable month of wrestling and Alan and Matt McEwen attempt to do it justice with an in-depth preview this week on the DKP! CHECK IT!!!

We made it a mission to ensure four DKPs this month, and we snuck in under the closing door to make it just in time!

With a huge OTT show this weekend, Alan foregoes Skype and gets the portable recorder out to talk to Sarah about Saturday’s card. From the high stakes Smile vs. Haskins main event to the all star trios match and everything in between, the 4L’s cover it all with plenty of absurd tangents thrown in!

For those that appreciate professionalism well…. this is… probably not the show for you. Otherwise a GREAT show! CHECK IT!!!

We’re joined this week on the DKP by our good pal Joey Bay, who is fresh off a whirlwind six weeks of live wrestling. Joey got to NXT TakeOver weekend in Chicago and Money in the Bank in St. Louis, with the small matter of a trip to Japan squeezed in between.

Why yes, he was indeed at THAT match in Osaka. Alan talks to Joey about Dominion, the Best of the Super Juniors, sitting beside Lord Steven Regal at Dragon Gate, and a great DDT show at the Mecca of Professional Wrestling — Shinjuku FACE.

Joey also got to see EVOLVE and Michael Elgin’s Glory Pro during this span of time and we talk all that and so much more in a whopper edition of the DKP. CHECK IT!!!

After an unforgettable weekend in the NXT tent at Download Festival, Alan and special guest Sarah recorded a little on the road audio about not just the action in the ring, but also the multiple live musical acts they saw!

It’s the only podcast you’ll hear this week discussing the car rental process, Steven Tyler, Nikki Cross, and AFI!!! Find out which NXT wrestlers stood up tall with great performances and which ones Alan thought were in over their head. Plus, a tiny bit of New Japan DOMINION talk because what would a podcast this week be without it! CHECK IT!!!

On this brand new FREE edition of the DKP, we present the second episode of the “I Was There When…” series!

This week our guest is Dave Musgrave of Wrestling Culture and Place To Be Nation, who chats with us about not one but TWO very famous matches that he was in attendance for. First Dave and Alan discuss the epic Hulk Hogan vs. The Rock match from WrestleMania 18 in 2002, and then we move forward four years and chat about another match that happened on WrestleMania weekend — the original Dragon Gate six-man at ROH Supercard of Honor.

So much history and significance with these bouts, there’s a lot to get into! PLUS, as teased on Twitter, Alan had a MAJOR WRESTLING REVELATION which he shares at the end of the show! Check it!!!

Hello one and all! Yes, the DKP is still alive and thankfully ol’ Alan4L is too!!! After a couple of weeks in the hospital which put our dear show on hiatus, Alan is back with a solo show this week to recap what’s been going on in his life.

And of course by that we mean, the absolute swathes of professional wrestling he got to watch in between shots of morphine, operations, and tasty hospital meals (seriously they were REALLY good!!!).

A bit of everything gets covered in this short and snappy 45 minute show. Whether it be PROGRESS in London, CWF Mid-Atlantic in North Carolina, Dragon Gate in Tokyo or Gran Apache baby stealing in Mexico City — chances are Alan watched it in the hospital and shares his thoughts with you guys this week!

We’ll be back on the horse going forward, and this will be a great summer for the DKP! CHECK IT!!!

The dust has settled on WrestleMania week and the dust has settled on the wheels of the DKP Big Rig. Yep, the 18 wheeler has come to a stop and Alan, Justin, and Dave settle in for a chat about things we liked and disliked from the big show in Orlando, where things go from here, and the shocking reality of what buying a house in Dublin involves!!!

There’s a lot to unpack of course, but this is a tight breezy discussion that hits on some things that you hopefully haven’t heard on the million other Mania recap podcasts in the past week. CHECK IT!!!

The final leg of the epic journey to WrestleMania is now available for your listening pleasure, and boy is it something.

Alan, Justin, and Dave are joined by a familiar hitchhiker who may have shed some light on what happened to our friend Eamo. All sorts of absolute nonsense is talked, including the very popular WrestleCon preview/movie production pitch. If you can make it through the ridiculousness, there is actually a pretty sensible Mania go-home preview to be found in the second half of the show!

It’s wild times on the DKP Big Rig as we get set for WRESTLEMANIA!!! CHECK IT!!!

The epic DKP voyage to WrestleMania rolls on in the Big Rig and we have A LOT to talk about this week. The stacked card has come together, but many big names are on the outside looking in.

Alan, Dave, and Justin talk about where Braun, Joe, Balor, and others could fit, and whether the Andre Battle Royal could be a sneaky great match. Plus, a look at the other big programs for the show. Some stocks are rising; some are dropping.

Justin, being the amazing broadcast journalist that he is, attended the SmackDown tapings for us and talks his experience. All this plus ANOTHER HITCH-HIKER!!!!……ANOTHER JUSTIN!!!! CHECK IT!!!!

With balloting complete and the ROH Top 50 of all-time being released this week, we here on the DKP get in on the action!

Joe Gagne and Mike Falcone join Alan to run down their ballots. The lads go all the way from fifty to…well…they were going to try to get to number one but that just wasn’t happening! So consider this part one, as we get to the halfway house talking names such as Jushin Liger, Tommaso Ciampa, Bobby Fish, Raven, Jack Evans, and many more!

A show that’ll make you want to dig into your tape collection! Nearly two hours of fun ROH chat! CHECK IT!!!
